Not true, there is a formula that calculates how many times paper can be folded based on its thickness and length, people have folded paper up to 12 times. roud:

Errr.... You sure?

An oak will produce its first good seed crop when it is 40-50 years old, and acorn production varies, with trees sometimes producing very few in a given year. Large numbers of acorns are produced intermittently in what are known as mast years, and these occur every three to five years, when a mature tree can produce up to 50,000 acorns. The acorns are shed before the leaves fall, and they begin to germinate almost immediately. The leaf litter which accumulates on top of them provides protection from frost and hides them from seed-eating animals and birds, but very few of the acorns produced by a single oak are successful in growing on to become a mature tree.
